The relationship between the United States and India - the most populous Democracy on the planet, a rising economic power, a nuclear power, etc. - is going to be crucial in the 21st century. Let's hope it's a strong one, based on shared values of democracy, freedom, security, human rights, tolerance, environmental stewardship, and peaceful coexistence among nations.

Back in January 2005, when I started a little blog called "Raising Kaine," people scoffed at the concept that Virginia would turn Democratic "blue," let alone Progressive "blue," anytime soon. Well, four years later, Democrats controlled both U.S. Senate seats, 6 out of 11 House of Representatives seats, the State Senate, and the governor's mansion. Goal #1 should be to keep it that way. Goal #2 should be to expand our majority. Goal #3 should be to elect not just MORE Democrats but BETTER Democrats, more Progressive Democrats. Along those lines, I want to state categorically that, even more than a Democrat, I consider myself a Progressive in the tradition of Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Tom Paine, Teddy Roosevelt, JFK, RFK, and Jim Webb. As such, I believe in expanding opportunities to all, utilizing government as a tool to promote the general welfare and the common good, protecting the environment for ourselves and for future generations, and expanding the rights promised in our Constitution and Bill of Rights to all Americans.
This blog is not intended to be a replacement for Raising Kaine, or RK as it came to be known. It is simply my personal blog, where I can write whatever moves me at a particular moment. The focus will be Virginia politics, but expect to see diaries here on national and even international events, particularly - but not only - as they affect Virginia. Finally, while I begin this blog as the sole author, I do not exclude the possibility of inviting other principled, pragmatic Progressives to join me at some point. And, of course, I invite everyone to comment here, but please be aware that profanity, personal attacks, bigotry, and "trolling" are not allowed. Thanks, and enjoy!
